Mechanical Installations
It is one of the most important elements that give life to construction structures and provide functionality to the living beings inside. Combined with mechanical and electrical installations as electromechanical systems, they can be described as the veins of a building or structure. Without them, a building is largely useless and cannot serve people.
In construction and building works, mechanical engineering covers all heating, cooling, ventilation, clean and wastewater, sanitary hot water, and fire extinguishing system works. Mechanical installations are prepared by mechanical engineers and technical draftsmen.
Mechanical installation is one of the four main project types in the construction sector: static, architectural, electrical, and mechanical.
Recently, as electromechanical, it has almost merged with electrical installation projects, becoming two main disciplines that work together. Mechanical installation projects are prepared by mechanical engineers and technical draftsmen. These projects determine the mechanical infrastructure of buildings and industrial facilities, specifying how the building’s water, wastewater, heating, cooling, ventilation, and fire prevention systems will be, along with the types and capacities of the related devices, and the routes and pipe diameters of the building’s clean water and sewage lines.
The main components of mechanical installation are located in spaces called the mechanical room or machine room.
WHAT ARE MECHANICAL INSTALLATION PROJECTS? WHAT DO MECHANICAL INSTALLATION PROJECTS INCLUDE?
Mechanical installation encompasses all components that form the internal system of a building, construction, or industrial facility, aimed at improving living standards and comfort. Therefore, it is important that each system works compatibly and supportively with the others to create overall quality.
It includes the preparation of plans, projects, drawings, calculations, and tender documents related to other mechanical and all kinds of heating equipment of buildings and facilities, and the execution of all kinds of technical supervision and inspection services in compliance with laws, regulations, technical and professional general principles and interests, in harmony and unity.
In mechanical installation design, consultancy, or control processes, from material selection to the service life of products and buildings, the following criteria must be considered to ensure service throughout the usage period.
- Comfortable conditions
- Functionality
- Reliability
- Durability and Long Life
- Compatibility with advanced technology
- Low initial investment costs
- Ease of implementation
- Ease of installation, repair, and maintenance
- Ease of use
- Expandability
- Water and energy savings
- Environmental sensitivity
- Post-sale installation and service support
